TURN YOUR HEAT DOWN — THE GOVERNMENT WANTS YOUR ENERGY!!
Quebec’s energy minister is asking people to monitor their energy consumption and change their habits as the province prepares to expand its fleet of electric vehicles (EVs).
Quebec has set its EV sights on two million gas-free vehicles on the road by the end of the decade.
Two million electric vehicles will make for a heavy strain on the grid, according to Economy, Innovation and Energy Minister Pierre Fitzgibbon
“Needless to say, the two million EVs that (Environment Minister) Benoit Charette has put as a rule is putting a lot of pressure on Hydro-Quebec,” he said Friday.
